John, Azamat, Rich

We have to agree that Whole is more than sum of parts such as life which generally obeys physics, chemistry etc. For example if a creature (non flying) falls down, it has to suffer consequences of acceleration due to gravity thus life may be lost but not the constituent matter. Thus in some philosophies the consciousness is the continuum that binds it all living or non-living! How will that fit into realism, nominalism or reductionism or will it be excluded by those - by limiting our understanding to living or non-living matter - who have not followed that line of reasoning?

Thanks.

I apologize to Azamat and Chris, and anyone else who thinks I meant that statement seriously.  On the west coast here, that's a kind of conversational joke, not a serious accusation or insult.  No insult, no accusations intended to hurt anyone, at least by me.  I consider every person on this list a friend, and if my language seems insulting, please forgive that interpretation.  That's not what I meant.  I have only the best wishes for my friends on this list. 

 

Sorry,

-Rich
